On and immediately adjacent to a reservation area of approxiiiiately 16 million acres in northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico/and southern Utah, nearly 50,000 Navajos make their home. Sheep raising has been the main occupation of these people for well over a century. After years of continued overgrazing, the land has become badly eroded and will not support a sheep industry of sufficient size to maintain the constantly growing Navajo population. The number of mature sheep and goats on the reservation has been reduced to about 550,000 head, but the total number of stock, in- cluding horses and cattle, is still considerably in excess of the carrying capacity of the range, according to estimates of the Soil Conservation Service, of the United States Department of Agriculture.

By Dr. Washington Matthews. § I. The art of weaving, as it exists among the Navajo Indians of New Mexico and Arizona, possesses points of great interest to the stu- dent of ethnography. It is of aboriginal origin ; and while European art has undoubtedly modifled it, the extent and nature of the foreign influence is easily traced. It is by no means certain, still there are many reasons for supposing, that the Navajos learned their craft from the Pueblo Indians, and that, too, since the advent of the Spaniards; yet the pupils, if such they be, far excel their masters to-day in the beauty and quality of their work.

  • Navajo Weaving: Its Historic and Contemporary Perspectives
    Navajo Weaving: Its Historic and Contemporary Perspectives Presented by Jerry Kerr March, 2006 Photo by Edward S. Curtis “For many generations weaving has been an integral part of the fabric of Navajo life. Monetary rewards are only a small part of the Navajo woman’s desire to weave. Weaving is a unifying force, an expression of personal pride and cultural identity, a spiritual experience, a tradition.” - Alice Kaufman and Christopher Selser Navajo Weaving Tradition: 1650 to the Present INTRODUCTION The Pueblo Culture of the American Southwest had been in the region for centuries, and the people had been weaving cotton for 500 years by the time the Navajo arrived in the area in the 1300s. While the pueblos focused on peaceful co-existence and domesticity, the Navajo, subsistence farmers themselves, raided other tribes and villages for their sustenance and wealth. This was the tenuous balance of power that the Spanish encountered when they first arrived in the region – a peaceful pueblo culture that was the dominant social influence in the area somewhat defenseless against the incursions of the raiding Navajo. Through the taking of pueblo slaves, the Navajo had been able to learn first-hand the intricacies of weaving spun cotton thread into fabric. The Navajos quickly adapted the pueblo loom to suit their own seasonally migratory lifestyle, and they have retained those adaptations to this day. They also designated weaving as women’s work, while it had been the responsibility of the men in the pueblos. By the time of the Spanish arrival in 1540 the Navajo weavers had already begun to surpass the pueblos in technical proficiency and design creativity.

    BEYOND BINARY: NAVAJO ALTERNATIVE GENDERS THROUGHOUT HISTORY BY: CHRISTINA JORDAN NARUSZEWICZ A thesis submitted to the graduate faculty in partial fulfillment requirements for the degree of MASTERS OF MUSEUM STUDIES IN HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY University of Central Oklahoma 2016 0 1 Acknowledgments I would like to thank the community of scholars I have worked with over the past two years within the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO). By working with professors and students as colleagues, I received community support that drove this research through the dead ends and quandaries. Firstly, I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Lindsey Churchill for her insight and friendship as both my graduate advisor and committee chair. Through her mentorship, I challenged myself both academically, professionally, and personally. Dr. Katrina Lacher, also on my committee, helped introduce me to the subject of Two-Spirit individuals and guided my research for the historiography of the subject. Dr. Patricia Loughlin, the Chair of the History and Geography Department, has shown a constant interest in my research and offered several research suggestions that provided critical insight for several chapters. To my friends and family thank you for you enduring support and patience. To the community of scholars at UCO, thank you for the debates and conversation. I would like to thank Neal Hampton for suggesting that I look into Newcomb’s Hosteen Klah: Navajo Medicine Man. A suggestion that jump-started this whole thesis. I am especially grateful to Alexander Larrea, for all the proof-reading, and last minute technology help sessions. Finally, my thesis would not have been possible without the services and efforts of the staff at several institutions.
